Kornit Launches
New DTG Machine

The Vulcan DTG
platform can print
up to 250 garments
per hour.

KORNIT DIGITAL, Rosh-Ha'ayin, Israel, recently introduced
its new Vulcan digital direct-to-garment (DTG) platform.
With the Vulcan's speed and ink effi ciency, digital printing
will rival screen printing for mid-to-long runs for the first time,
according to the company.
"Everyone is talking about fast fashion," says Sharon Donovich,
product marketing manager at Kornit Digital. "Demand has changed.
Buyers don't want to hold inventory; they don't want to take risks.
We believe that digital is the technology that is the answer to
these trends."
Compared to the company's current systems, the Vulcan can
reduce the cost per print by up to 40% while doubling the effective
throughput - printing up to 250 garments per hour - with dark
and light garments printed at the same speed.
Th e machine features 60 new-generation print heads with
an advanced recirculating ink system in a six-color-plus-white
configuration. The system caters to multiple print sizes and
configurations with a maximum print size of 27.5" x 39.5".
"Retailers prefer to print smaller quantities and send them out to
be tested," Donovich says. "There is big demand for a system that
will be able to provide the right solution for those mid-size runs
and will give the right cost efficiency and the right productivity
with the right time to market. This is what we call 'retail-ready.'
The Vulcan is the answer for this market."
